The packaging madness: How do we stop the plastic flood?
08/19/2021 ∙ Quarks
to the video in German (ardmediathek.de)
Its production and incineration produces climate-damaging CO2, it pollutes rivers and beaches, and huge plastic whirlpools float in the sea. In the end, microplastics are created, which also end up in the human body. Quarks shows what needs to happen to stop the flood of plastic and promote recycling.
So what have I done in my first semester for my project
I tried to colloborate with Students from India. First it started well, but because of Corona, they had a lockdown and suddendly I could not make a colloboration.
I also have a colloboration with students from Basque Land, but they have summer holidays, and the communication didnt go well at the end, because I was in the Army for 3 weeks. I couldn't make anything for the project.
I made surveys by my own on the streets of Zurich. The people who I had interviewed were really interested and said i am doing a good job.
But why haven't you not seen any results? All the steps above need a lot of time. And I didnt work much with the horse and OneNote.
I hope its a good understandable update and if there are any questions just ask me
I have finished my assignment in german. I want to write it into english. The survey are already in the document.
The Project from the students of basque land need to send me their documents about their project, but they are in the summer holiday.
So I need to wait until they can send me their informations. Than I can add them in my documents.
And the students from Kerala had many problems because of Covid-19.
I have already made surveys, and I am working on a written assignment where I include the surveys at the last part. And also In the written assignment its all about littering, why littering exists and how it is combated.
I wrote to VIS and IGSU and they both didnt reply to me. SO i couldnt make an interview there.
My project aim is to compare 3 countries ; Swiss, Bask country and India
I did a mindmap
I want different survey from their country and I already communicated it to them
I will do a survey and also an interview with IGSU (IG Saubere Umwelt) and VSR ( Verein Swiss Recycling)
My next step is to contact the IGSU and VSR and make an appointment.
